In a shocking onset of the Bundesliga season, Bayern Munich find themselves in fourth place after 8 games and it's equally shocking not to see Robert Lewandowski on top of the scoring charts.

Although behind in the Golden Boot race, the Bayern No.9 has been doing his duty unfailingly. He has found the back of the net 5 times and has been involved in two assists in 7 matches so far.

In such tough times, the German champions can always rely on their frontman who has been involved in roughly 50% of all Bayern goals so far.


# 6 Edinson Cavani

When players like Neymar and Mbappe play on either of the flanks, scoring goals can become a daunting task for any player. How Edinson Cavani still manages to squeeze in the goals ever so often, is really impressive.

The player who inherited the No.9 jersey from Zlatan Ibrahimovic has been on the score sheet 5 times this season, with 2 assist too in 7 appearances for PSG.

The Uruguayan is capable of so much more than his current tally and it is just a matter of time before he is back in the contention for the Ligue 1 Golden Boot.
